Where does the availability information come from?

Amadeus.net provides you with online access to the Amadeus Database System that offers an efficient system of reservation to travel agencies/airlines. The availability tool gives you access to timetables of all flights that are still open and displays real-time seat availability. The Amadeus Database contains availability displays with more than 480 bookable airlines in the world, about 322 hotel chains and 47 car rental companies. In this section, you won't find fares for flights as prices depend on travel agencies and airlines. Amadeus.net is not a travel agency and only provides the e-technology to enable travel providers to offer an efficient reservation service.

The availability tool gives you access to availability displays for flight, hotels and car rental.
